It at least covers all 3-dim Lie algebras over char 0 fields (up to isomorphism); I will check when I get home what generality they meant (and put a reference if you think it's necessary).
Also for this change:
+ if hasattr(self, "module") and x in self.module():
+ return self.from_vector(x)
I think you should do
try: if x in self.module(): return self.from_vector(x) except AttributeError: pass
For the FromAssociative.lift
...well there's some ambiguity there as to whether we want to lift to the UEA or just some enveloping algebra. I opted to lift just to the defining algebra (which I forgot to change in the docs) as this seemed the most natural. We will also have to deal with subalgebras and a lift
there.
For the tested methods, it was originally returning an element from a matrix Lie algebra, but through refactoring this had changed. This can be remedied by changing the 3 to 1, i.e.: L = lie_algebras.three_dimensional_by_rank(QQ, 1)
.
I'm also not happy with the corner cases being allowed as all properties become vacuous.
Anyways, I'll make changes tomorrow as I will let Sage compile tonight when I get back home.

Ah, please add the reference. That's quite an interesting result.

+ if hasattr(self, "module") and x in self.module(): + return self.from_vector(x)
I think you should do
try: if x in self.module(): return self.from_vector(x) except AttributeError: pass
Does this do something different or is it just more pythonic? I am worried about this try-except game as I can't tell whether the AttributeError? comes from self.module() or from the self.from_vector(x).
For the
FromAssociative.lift
...well there's some ambiguity there as to whether we want to lift to the UEA or just some enveloping algebra. I opted to lift just to the defining algebra (which I forgot to change in the docs) as this seemed the most natural. We will also have to deal with subalgebras and alift
there.
I am in favor of renaming it then. The abstract lift
lazy_attribute in sage/categories/lie_algebras.py
explicitly speaks of the UEA in its doc. A lift
that can go anywhere depending on the concrete algebra will be rather useless.
For the tested methods, it was originally returning an element from a matrix Lie algebra, but through refactoring this had changed. This can be remedied by changing the 3 to 1, i.e.:
L = lie_algebras.three_dimensional_by_rank(QQ, 1)

Nope, they are still not wrappers.
I'm also not happy with the corner cases being allowed as all properties become vacuous.
The corner cases need to be allowed, and I've already caught at least 2 bugs by inserting tests for them.

IIRC, it's mostly just doing some linear algebra, going rank by rank, and using the constraint by the Jacobi identity. However I will add it.

It is more pythonic (and faster, but not noticably). You are the one who wanted the rule of 3s contract, and because of the category almost every Lie algebra which has a module attribute also has a from_vector
. Also I'd say the failure is more graceful this way as if either one is not implemented, then it results in an unable to do the coercion/conversion type error.

Renaming which one? Also it's far from useless to lift to some enveloping algebra as you would want to convert between say, SGA and the Lie algebra.

Whoops, yes. Do sl(QQ, 2, representation='matrix')
or one of the upper triangular matrix Lie algebras.
I'm also not happy with the corner cases being allowed as all properties become vacuous.

No, they don't have to be allowed. In fact, because they are the empty set, they aren't really well-defined to me.

A lot of Lie theory is just doing some linear algebra... Linear algebra does a lot.
It is more pythonic (and faster, but not noticably). You are the one who wanted the rule of 3s contract, and because of the category almost every Lie algebra which has a module attribute also has a
from_vector

You're right -- fixed!
For the
FromAssociative.lift
...well there's some ambiguity there as to whether we want to lift to the UEA or just some enveloping algebra. I opted to lift just to the defining algebra (which I forgot to change in the docs) as this seemed the most natural. We will also have to deal with subalgebras and alift
there.
So you have 3 different meanings of lift now:
- lift from g to U(g);
- lift from g to *some* associative algebra containing g;
- lift from g to a bigger Lie algebra.
I have no idea how I am to rely on a method which can do either of these three things depending on the implementation (and possibly on the MRO?). These warrant distinct names.
Renaming which one?
Either.
Whoops, yes. Do
sl(QQ, 2, representation='matrix')
or one of the upper triangular matrix Lie algebras.
Thanks. And you know what's funny? The try/except change actually fixed the == 0 tests...
but caused some new crap:
sage: L = lie_algebras.sl(QQ, 2, representation='matrix') sage: L(2) [2 0] [0 2]
This is not in sl(2)!
Although, this is tolerable due to how this version of sl(2) is defined (as a generate of E, F and H).
No, they don't have to be allowed. In fact, because they are the empty set, they aren't really well-defined to me.
0-dimensional Lie algebras exist and sometimes you get them by quotienting or restricting. It isn't mathematically reasonable to exclude them.

comment:30 Changed 7 years ago by
IIRC, how I got around the subalgebra lifting was calling it lift_ambient
. Perhaps what we should do is have it take an optional argument which calls the respective coercion and has some default. Maybe ask Nicolas?
You're right, but it's the one consisting of {0}
. However this is not the empty set like the set of 0x0
matrices the corner cases construct.
I'm getting on my flight now. Talk to you when I'm back in California.
comment:31 Changed 7 years ago by
- Keywords sd67 added
lift_ambient
sounds good -- now I'd just wish the other two lifts would have different names.
What do you mean by "not the empty set like the set of 0x0 matrices"? There is a unique 0x0 matrix, and it is strictly upper-triangular.
Yes, talk to you later, and thanks for all the quick responses so far -- they're very helpful.
Meanwhile, here is an enigma for other people to solve:
sage: L = lie_algebras.three_dimensional_by_rank(QQ, 3) sage: L in Modules(QQ) True sage: L.zero() == 0 True sage: L.zero() == QQ(0) False

3032fc0 | product of Lie algebra elements with base ring elements now doesn't lift into the universal envelope
|
comment:34 Changed 7 years ago by
Here is a problem with using lift
for any kind of lift:
sage: L = lie_algebras.sl(QQ, 2, representation='matrix') sage: E, F, H = L.gens() sage: E [0 1] [0 0] sage: F [0 0] [1 0] sage: H [ 1 0] [ 0 -1] sage: E * H [ 0 -1] [ 0 0]
But E * H should not be -E if it's really to mean the element E * H of the universal envelope.
Also, it's black on white (green on black?) here:
def universal_enveloping_algebra(self): """ Return the universal enveloping algebra of ``self``. EXAMPLES:: sage: L = LieAlgebras(QQ).FiniteDimensional().WithBasis().example() sage: L.universal_enveloping_algebra() Noncommutative Multivariate Polynomial Ring in b0, b1, b2 over Rational Field, nc-relations: {} :: sage: L = LieAlgebra(QQ, 3, 'x', abelian=True) sage: L.universal_enveloping_algebra() Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x0, x1, x2 over Rational Field .. SEEALSO:: :meth:`lift` """ return self.lift.codomain()
The codomain of the lift has to be the UEA.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you; traveling plus clearing off my built up work.
comment:29 I think the issue is that there isn't enough checking of coefficients and maybe a default assumption somewhere that algebras are unital? Perhaps it's also lifting up in some fashion? I'll take a look at that this week.
comment:31
I would say the set of 0x0 matrices is the empty set, not the set containing a unique element, the empty matrix. As for the oddity, I think we need a better/more uniform system for equality for things that behave like 0. At the very least, this is an issue with CombinatorialFreeModuleElement
that deserves a separate ticket:
sage: C = CombinatorialFreeModule(ZZ, ['a','b']) sage: C.zero() == 0 True sage: C.zero() == QQ(0) False

Yes, that is definitely bad. I'm thinking we should have lift
always return an element of the UEA and state that explicitly. For the lifting to the defining associative algebra, perhaps call that lift_associative
?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you; traveling plus clearing off my built up work.
Don't worry. I'm again swamped in work, so the sorriness is mutual.
Replying to tscrim:
comment:29 I think the issue is that there isn't enough checking of coefficients and maybe a default assumption somewhere that algebras are unital? Perhaps it's also lifting up in some fashion? I'll take a look at that this week.
Forget about this part -- I've since noticed that you define sl(2) as a Lie subalgebra of an associative algebra generated by a subset, and since you don't have methods which compute such a thing exactly, there is no surprise that it accepts input too liberally.
comment:31 I would say the set of 0x0 matrices is the empty set, not the set containing a unique element, the empty matrix.
There are very good reasons for considering it a one-element set. Matrices of size m \times n correspond to morphisms R^n \to R^m
. How many morphisms are there from R^0
to R^0
(that is, from 0 to 0) ? One -- the zero morphism.

That's a good idea.
The Lie subalgebra of an associative algebra generated by a subset will, so far, have no UEA, since we don't compute its full ground set. But now you made me wonder if we really need the Lie subalgebra of an associative algebra generated by a subset... If we don't compute its ground set, and only let the user compute "inside" it, then why don't we just use the whole associative algebra as a Lie algebra? The generators seem to be useless...

I would say that this is a degenerate case of the general equality, but fair enough. More fun with corner cases that no one will likely construct except for corner case testing... Will fix.

Then you'd have gln = sln and there will be Lie subalgebras eventually implemented. More generally, the UEA of the (Lie) subalgebra will be a (assoc) subalgebra of the UEA of the ambient Lie algebra. However, we will need general support for subalgebras, which I don't think #11111 provides...

I've fixed the issues with lift
and the universal enveloping algebra for LieAlgebraFromAssociative
.
Right now I'm going to leave the option to specify the generators when constructing a Lie algebra from an associative algebra. Once #17416 (subalgebras) is done, it will directly create the corresponding Lie subalgebra.

comment:93 Changed 6 years ago by
I am in the process of doing a rewrite of the underlying implementation from using CFM to wrapping the usual free modules since all of the algorithms rely on linear algebra. However, this doesn't need much work beyond that; just more of a check of the doc and basic math. So I can postpone by rewrite to a followup ticket if you want to finish the review now.
comment:94 Changed 6 years ago by
I don't know how much work this needs :/ truth be told, I've only reviewed some of the more mathematical parts of it.

Okay, that should fix all of the outstanding problems with my rebase. The only thing left is to add doctests, fix the docbuild, change the failing doctests (which are caused by those tests being for a different class), and remove any cruft that might have built up.
I think I will also add a class for infinite-dimensional Lie algebras that uses LieAlgebraElement
(which should be renamed) that behaves somewhat like a CombinatorialFreeModule
, but inherits from LieAlgebra
. This will serve as another common ABC for the Heisenberg and Virasoro Lie algebras, loop algebras, etc.
I also Cythonized the element class (for Lie algebras w/ structure coefficients) and tried to make it so those are as fast as can be.

comment:105 Changed 6 years ago by
In comment:103 and comment:104 I reviewed the src/sage/structure/indexed_generators.py
and src/sage/algebras/lie_algebras/abelian.py
files, and corrected the minor errors I have found there.
Reviewing the entire ticket might be too much for me, but it would be great to have Lie algebras in Sage.

This ticket looks in good shape to me, with clear maths (as far as I can tell) and very high quality code. I've just a few comments:
- The documentation of classes
MatrixLieAlgebraFromAssociative
andLieAlgebraMatrixWrapper
is reduced to "Initialize self.", which certainly could be improved, even if the class names are quite explicit.
- There is a typo in the reference [deGraaf2000]: "Mathemtaical" --> "Mathematical"
- Some infinite-dimensional Lie algebras lack of a
dimension
method:sage: R = FreeAlgebra(QQ, 3) sage: dim(R) +Infinity sage: L = LieAlgebra(associative=R) sage: dim(L) AttributeError: 'LieAlgebraFromAssociative_with_category' object has no attribute 'dimension'
Btw, shouldn'tdimension
be added toParentMethods
in the Lie algebra category? - Regarding Heisenberg Lie algebras:
sage: L = lie_algebras.Heisenberg(QQ, 2) sage: L.lie_algebra_generators() Finite family {'p2': p2, 'q1': q1, 'p1': p1, 'q2': q2, 'z': z} sage: L.gens() (p1, p2, q1, q2)
Shouldn't z be part of the tuple of generators returned bygens
?
- The patchbot is complaining about "Python 3 incompatible code" in
lie_algebra_element.pyx
, namely the use ofiteritems
. Has this not been fixed byfrom six import iteritems
because it is a Cython file?
- Just for curiosity: why are you constructing all Lie algebras by invoking the base class
LieAlgebra
, relying onLieAlgebra.__classcall_private__
to dispatch to the actual subclass corresponding to the input? Couldn't you use a functionLieAlgebra
to do this, as we did for manifolds (cf. the functionManifold
)? (possibly renaming the classLieAlgebra
to e.g.LieAlgebraBase
to avoid any confusion). A drawback of the current setting is that the inline documentation obtained fromLieAlgebra?
returns the__init__
docstring:INPUT: * "R" -- the base ring * "names" -- (optional) the names of the generators * "category" -- the category of the Lie algebra; the default is the category of Lie algebras over "R"
which does not correspond to the actual arguments to be passed toLieAlgebra
(because of the__classcall_private__
mechanism) and therefore may confuse the user. If you want to keepLieAlgebra.__classcall_private__
, a solution could be to set theINPUT
section in the docstring of theLieAlgebra
class.

Thank you for doing the review.
- The documentation of classes

Fixed by adding a docstring stub.

Fixed.

in the Lie algebra category?
Fixed. Really it should belong to the ModulesWithBasis
category (see #22629), but I moved it up to LieAlgebrasWithBasis
category for now.
- Regarding Heisenberg Lie algebras:
sage: L = lie_algebras.Heisenberg(QQ, 2) sage: L.lie_algebra_generators() Finite family {'p2': p2, 'q1': q1, 'p1': p1, 'q2': q2, 'z': z} sage: L.gens() (p1, p2, q1, q2)Shouldn't z be part of the tuple of generators returned bygens
?
I went the other way and dropped z
from lie_algebra_generators
since I wanted a more minimal generating set.
- The patchbot is complaining about "Python 3 incompatible code" in
lie_algebra_element.pyx
, namely the use ofiteritems
. Has this not been fixed byfrom six import iteritems
because it is a Cython file?
Yes, that is correct. I did some other small improvements from things I've learned about Cython recently.
- Just for curiosity: why are you constructing all Lie algebras by invoking the base class
LieAlgebra
, relying onLieAlgebra.__classcall_private__

mechanism) and therefore may confuse the user. If you want to keepLieAlgebra.__classcall_private__
, a solution could be to set theINPUT
section in the docstring of theLieAlgebra
class.
Because this is both the main entry point and the common base class, so there is no reason to separate the two IMO. It also avoids documentation duplication. Additionally the main docstring is (or at least should be) the class-level docstring, which has lots of different possible inputs first as examples. I agree it is a minor drawback that the __init__
does get included, but it is way at the bottom. However, the possible inputs are quite varied, so writing an INPUT
block complicated.

I agree. Accordingly, it may be worth to change the documentation of HeisenbergAlgebra.z()
to something like "the basis element z".
Still with Heisenberg algebras, we have
sage: L = lie_algebras.Heisenberg(QQ, 2) sage: L.center() AttributeError: 'HeisenbergAlgebra_with_category' object has no attribute 'basis_matrix'
Another issue arises because of the m[1]

Thanks for these explanations.
However, the possible inputs are quite varied, so writing an

But isn't it the point of a reference manual to provide an exhaustive list of all possible inputs? Maybe it is too much in this case; if you think that the provided examples perform a sufficient coverage, then it is fine for me.
comment:115 Changed 5 years ago by
Returning for a little bit of bikeshedding:
- "cosnstructed" in heisenberg.py.
- There is a bunch of TODOs in lie_algebra_element.pyx. Are they all still up-to-date?
- In lie_algebra_element.pyx, is
self == 0 or y == 0
really the right thing? I thought we hadis_zero()
for testing zero without triggering a rube goldberg machine of coercions.
- In lie_algebra_element.pyx, in class
StructureCoefficientsElement
methodcpdef _bracket_(self, right)
, why not switch the next two statements:+ prod_c1_c2 = c1 * c2 + if not c2: + pass
Actually, is pass
the right thing here, rather than continue
? I thought pass
is just a nop; or is this a Cython oddity? (Same for the if not c1
a few lines earlier.)

Fixes all of comment:114 and comment:115 (the only bikeshedding could be in the is_zero
, but that might be a better approach, IDK exactly). Currently center
will not work until subalgebra
is implemented in generality, you can at least use L.centralizer_basis(L)

I don't see why this should be a subalgebra (it is just a vector subspace). Counterexamples can easily be obtained if self (e.g.) is a free Lie algbera and L is the span of a single generator. (And that's just for the case when self and L both are Lie subalgebras; but the method is probably useful in higher generality.)
Why define I
if you don't use it? And why define K
and LK
if you could just iterate over B
and LB
?
As for echelonization... It will, of course, break over non-fields. But I'm not sure if this function is supposed to apply to non-fields.
comment:124 Changed 5 years ago by
So the current implementation is based upon returning the subalgebra generated by gens
, but indeed, this is not the right thing to do. So I should add something to check if L
(and self
) is an ideal or not. If it is, then the result is again an ideal.
As for non-fields, it should work (at least over nice enough rings):
sage: M = matrix([[1,2,5,2,3],[4,1,2,3,2],[6,2,3,1,2]]) sage: M.echelonize() sage: M [ 1 0 5 16 7] [ 0 1 0 -7 -2] [ 0 0 9 27 12] sage: M.base_ring() Integer Ring
comment:125 Changed 5 years ago by
Ah yes, it does work over the integers, though not over an arbitrary ring. Speaks in favor of an optional parameter.
I think there are good use cases for considering [U, V] when it is not a Lie ideal (let alone U and V). So maybe the result should really be just a subspace.

comment:127 Changed 5 years ago by
I'm not sure about an optional parameter as that starts making things tricky because I think anything you would do likely has a call to echelonize
somewhere.
I agree completely that we should allow [U, V] to not just be a Lie ideal, and I have implemented that in the last commit.

Something else:

I might have already been nagging you about contracts and "what should I do if I want to set up a UEA for my own handmade Lie algebra" documentation. The above comment appears to explain it, but I'm not sure if it's enough. Literally it says I should just define _construct_UEA
and the rest will happen automatically. But don't I also need to define lift
, as it's otherwise just an abstract method in the base class? And is there a requirement that the base keys for the Lie algebra are a subset of the base keys for the UEA, or can a properly defined lift
method work around this?

It's better and easier to let it fail in the appropriate way and place. Errors do serve a useful purpose and going crazy in the doc doesn't help, especially when the base code is subject to change without notice.

Answers to all of the above is no. It is actually more generic currently than I mentioned when we talked yesterday. It is clear from the code that one would need to define both _construct_UEA
and the lift
method for the elements (again, errors should result in the proper place(s)). However, I added a little more detail about this.

Could this be a general issue with the repr of combinatorial free modules whose basis is a DisjointUnionEnumeratedSets
?
In other news, it just caught my eye that the overridden is_ideal
on abelian Lie algebras tacitly assumes that the ambient Lie algebra of self
is abelian, too (otherwise, self
is not automatically a Lie ideal just by virtue of being abelian). I don't think this is clear to the user! I should have noticed this earlier :/ Travis, can you fix this or clarify my misunderstanding? Thank you!

It is an issue of comparing a string to an integer. I added a key function that fixes the problem.

comment:143 Changed 5 years ago by
For the record, I disagree as it should be a minimal implementation. However, I have changed it so it punts it up to the category code (which is technically unnecessary now because afterwards I implemented it at the category level). This made me realize we needed to be more restrictive with the is_ideal
as it would run forever if given an infinite dimensional Lie algebra.
